Product Description:
An extraordinary and rare archival piece from Vivienne Westwood, these painterly flared jeans are a wearable canvas of erotic Renaissance motifs rendered in distorted, smoky abstraction. The print evokes sensual figures and mythological forms in Westwood’s signature rebellious spirit — a juxtaposition of historical grandeur and punk irreverence.
Crafted from mid-weight cotton denim, the trousers feature vivid tonal gradations, red contrast stitching, a low-rise waist, and a subtly flared hem. Rear pockets are embroidered with the iconic "W" stitch, and the signature red-and-gold Vivienne Westwood label sits proudly above the right pocket. Panel construction on the legs gives the silhouette architectural rhythm and adds structural edge to the garment’s painterly softness.
Highly collectible and incredibly rare, these jeans are not only a nod to Westwood’s heritage but also a radical expression of wearable art. Pair with minimalist layers or tailored blazers to let the baroque drama shine through.
